Tony nominee Liz Callaway will star in TheatreSquared's upcoming production of Duncan Macmillan's Every Brilliant Thing. Performances are scheduled for January 16–February 10, 2019, at the Arkansas venue.
Every Brilliant Thing is an immersive experience, and the creative team will transform T2’s theatre space into an in-the-round, intimate setup.
“I love this play,” said Callaway in a statement. “From ‘people falling over’—number 7—to ‘cycling downhill’—number 997—it’s about recognizing how small, ordinary things can add up to something extraordinary, if you’ll just let them. When I traveled here for TheatreSquared’s gala last year, I really fell for Northwest Arkansas. This play will be a wonderful reunion.”
“We are so lucky to have Liz Callaway joining us to tell this wonderful story,“ added Artistic Director Bob Ford. “It’s a play that brings together the audience in a way that I’ve never seen, and to help do so, we’re completely reimagining the setup of our theatre. Liz brings deep pathos, a mischievous sparkle, and profound talent to this heart-wrenching, funny, and deeply hopeful play about our beautifully imperfect world.”
Olivier Award nominee Macmillan’s play, critically acclaimed in London, Edinburgh, and New York, was directed Off-Broadway by George Perrin. Jonny Donahoe starred in the solo show, which was filmed at the Barrow Street in 2015 for HBO.
